A Michigan doctor who has been missing for five days was found dead in a frozen pond near his home.
Dr. Bolek Payan was last seen leaving his workplace, Henry Ford Jackson Hospital in Jackson, Michigan, on Dec. 22. After several days with "no contact with his employer, family or friends," the Blackman-Leoni Public Safety Department wrote on Facebook on Christmas Eve that he was a missing person and asked the public for help in finding him.
On Tuesday, the public safety department said that divers had recovered Payan's body. Detectives investigating Payan's disappearance were able to access a home video camera system and saw footage that showed Payan had left his home on foot in the afternoon of Dec. 22. After searching the area around his home with the assistance of K-9 dogs and drones, the decision was made to cut holes in the ice of a pond on Payan's property, the public safety department said.
